Away with the Fairies

Away with the fairies

where they hand you silent sweets

a silent poison of mischief

brewing jumping in your gut



And your dancing with the fairies

as the world gobels you up

like candy

You're sweet

and swallowed fast

In this fake bubble you trvel

and other fairies make their mark

then you're on your hands and knees

ready to breath

but there's no air left



No you're not a fairy

Just a girl

Flitting and floating unable to settle

for who you are

but what you want to be

magic and stars and wings

anything but the dead

and mortal

of a killing hating human

just so you can be away with the fairies

in a dampen forest

playing tricks

tinkling laughter

of a myth.
